The Situation
Now, more than ever, we live in a customer experience economy. Your customers want more, they want it faster, and they want it all packaged into a high-quality experience.
Innovative businesses like yours understand this and are looking to streamline operations and improve the customer experience.
If you’re already working with our friends at Innovia, the odds are good that you’re well on your way when it comes to streamlining operations. Dynamics 365 Business Central is a fantastic solution for improving your accounting and operational efficiency, and the folks at Innovia are pros when it comes to helping you make the most of your ERP.
The Opportunity
But if you aren’t using CRM yet, you may still be missing out on streamlining your sales, service, and marketing—and you’re almost certainly missing out on opportunities to improve and standardize the customer experience!
Like ERP, CRM is designed to help you increase operational efficiency, but it also enables you to create better experiences at your marketing, sales, and support touchpoints. That means more leads become prospects, more prospects become customers, and more customers become regular customers. And that means more revenue and higher profitability.
The Risk
With all that in mind, it’s not surprising that CRM adoption is exploding as businesses are emerging from the uncertainty of 2020 and adjusting to meet the challenges of the customer experience economy in 2021 and beyond.
But adopting CRM is not a risk-free proposition. 40-70% of CRM initiatives fail within 12-18 months.
Those failures are costly, not only in terms of wasted money but in terms of wasted time: time your customers (and your competitors!) may have used to keep moving forward!
The Solution
